Author: Hammad Hassan

I am sure that if you are the Generation x, then you are already aware of social media app TikTok but have you ever ran a background check on it and the impact of this app? Do you ever focus on how this social media app impacts one’s life?

Shed some light on its impact.

The Chinese invented a social media video app for one’s entertainment. So some are enjoying the videos by watching them and some are enjoying by creating them. Through the app, people can easily create a cheerful short lip-sync. The first name of TikTok was Musical.ly but in 2016, it was changed. Byte DANCE was bought MUSICALLY from American children. The one china market Byte Dance has launched this app in 2017. The studies show the high percentage of using this app is in Asia. A lot of Asia people using this app and wasting so much time on it. After Asia, the most using rate find in the USA. This app achieves success in very short time period. In 2017 this app was launched and in 2018 it is available in 150 markets and 75 languages. And then In February 2019, Tiktok, Douyin collaborate hit one billion downloads globally and it’s all happen in a small duration of time. It spread all around in a very short time because people spending a lot of time on Tiktok. Some people spend time for creating videos and some spend the time to watching the videos. If I talk about this app; how it work for me, so I would say that it’s an enjoyable app and delighted me ever but on the other hand it’s time-wasting. Through comedy videos, users are adding value to one’s life but it is not helping someone. This app drastically kills the other app. Tiktok shows that the world is replete of creative people and they are showcasing their acting on a different level. It changes the concept of images from the snap chat or concept of the post from face book. Now the world is change and people believe in video. The best thing about the Tiktok app is showcasing world creativity.

Let’s look at the impact of using this app. We all have a habit of “fear of missing out” when we see the photo of someone on Instagram and thinking that he/she enjoys a lot, I wish I was there and also enjoy like that, Tiktok impact on man’s life in the same manner. Virtuality with sound develops more interest in the man. After watching one video human nature wants more to see. The engaging content grab the attention of user And they also want to create the same video but most people can’t afford the things and most don’t give an impression in front of the camera, so then they get offended and lost in depression. They are getting disappointed with life. Showcasing the luxuries, branded cloth and other things creating a deep impact on the mind of those people who are not eligible to take all these. People think that they are best because they have everything, they live a happy life and we are a very unfortunate person so that persons are living in their depression and disappointments. Some People creating violations on Tiktok. Many people achieve fame on this platform and they become an ”Apple of the EYE”; but at the same time, Tiktok suspends their account because of violating the rules of the Tiktok app. Creating complacent content is more important on this platform.

The Chinese invented this social media video app for one’s entertainment. So some are enjoying the videos by watching them and some are enjoying by creating them. Through the app, people can easily create a cheerful short lip-sync. The first name of TikTok was Musical.ly but in 2016, it was changed

Most famous star name “faisu” who have 24 million followers, Tiktok suspend his account because he violating the rules. There are also one of the famous stars of Tiktok “Burak ozdemir” who is an amazing chef and cousin of Burak Obama violates the rules of Tiktok so, his account was suspended. Tiktok has a strong privacy policy, they take action against the people who creating violations on the platform. The one famous Pakistani little girl whose account name was “PARIDOLL” Also suspended because of violation. TIKTOK negatively impact on one’s children’s life because Tiktok has a huge collection of music like abusive and swearing that destroy the mind of the kid and they act in the same manner what they learn from it. Parents must be taking care of privacy. They must check out the activity of their children on Tiktok because most videos are a harmless and extreme level of comedy that influencing a great impact on children. Parents should set out all privacy settings and turn off the public account and make it convenient and personal use for the kid. Parents should have a controlling ability so kid can safely use the Tiktok app from the other app. We can also say that the Tiktok app is “social Evil” to some extent. A one user of the ‘Tiktok” app state that they saw their companions recordings the videos and uploading them, they thought its enjoyable to that and they pursued the equivalent yet when their recordings turned into a viral then they thought it was an error to transfer such video and was not a correct activity as it can demolish their life. So we can observe that If the content is not reliable its impact on your personality. The positive impact is that Tiktok becomes a source of income for many people. People take a profession. They properly create a group for making creative videos and work together. They work a team like someone is editor, someone is a theme creator, and others are actors and cameraperson.

TikTok psychologically impacts the mind of a person making one an attention seeker unconsciously. It makes us seek acceptance in the society. Waste time or do something constructive with your life – it is entirely your call.
